hi umonaco,

Welcome to forums,

I highly suggest you download the all the dirvers and thinkvantage tools from the Lenovo site. Below is link to the site.

Do give it a try. It should solve the thinkvantage issue.

Have you got the ThinkPad Tablet Button Drivers installed? See below:

Another driver you could try is the Hotkey Features Integration drivers. A direct link: http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/8jvu12ww.exe

This might be the solution instead of what I wrote above. It's supposed to enable all the special keys on your ThinkPad keyboard, maybe the blue ThinkVantage button too.

It also installs all kinds of ThinkPad-related utilities such as the On-Screen Magnifier etc.
